Hey Brandon, do you live near a power wash (pressure wash) station? If you do and your Celica runs, I'd like to see a before and after of you cleaning it. Idk what you want to do with it but if you're planning on mechanically and cosmetically restoring it anytime soon then you should post some pics of the stuff you're doing to it, for fun.

 

[Branden elwood]

I have access to power washers and bead guns. It isn't running yet. To many project not enough cash. Next week I plan on getting it running. It sat for 2 1/2 years with out being started so yea i don't know what lays ahead. I plan on fixing it up mechanically and cosmetically. As I get stuff done to it I will post picks for all who wish to see plus it will keep me motivated on the Celica (I am blonde so i get distracted easily). I'm kind of spoiled with access to tools because of my job so I am only limited by cash and imagination Next week I am going to start making the form for my new bumper. Its like Xmas in July .

here's my baby :wink:

My wife loves you celica hanna. Thanks for sharing

 

[bsnake2]

Looks like brandens clear coat is starting to peel lol

 

[TonyT]

You don't say? Which part of the car exactly?

 

[Branden elwood]

All of it lol oh
It looks like it has a 1/4 inch of bondo on the roof. I guess that's how the previous owner took care of rust

 

[TonyT]

You should buy an angle grinder and take off the paint on the roof. I'd recommend using a little bit of pressure, you don't want to grind through the metal, but it's the easiest way for your Celica's type of paint. They're only like $20-25 at Harbor Freight Tools.

That is an extremely clean 87. My first car was a red 86 GTS—looked a lot like this one except I had the MT. Car was pretty quick and would definitely run circles around my current 93 GTS Liftback.

Hi my name is Dennis. I'm from Belgium.
I own a 1990 celica sti 1600. Originally bought by my father in 1990. And i got it in 1999.

It has about 200.000 km
I recently put the car back on plates. It stood still for about 3 years. But now it's 25 years old i can register it as an old-timer. Cheaper insurance and taxes.

So here some pics of the car in its current condition:

That body kit is nice - its not over the top. Love dark green.

Wow 87'
Super clean. I love it.
I will, eventually, buy the original 92' wheels for my 92' Celica and get her all original again.
:yes:

Hi!

This is my 1.6 ST-i coupe. Going near 124k, not sure if the odometer has been reset though.

 

[Ragg Top Redd]

Greets to all, new to the group...

Just found this "Sleeping Beauty" in a nice snug garage in Cleveland...been inside since '04, 11 years in a coma. A combination of mostly minor problems became overwhelming to the previous owner, she's pretty clean and rust free, nice interior...153k miles, motor replaced at roughly 64k due to screw-up at Jiffy Lube. Hauled it home on a trailer, keeping my fingers crossed....

 

[RULES!!]

A bit of a bump here, a piccy of mine. I know it needs to be hit hard with the slam stick but oh well
